Then jack out that condensor. You'll get better cooling airflow.

Alright, I finally got back to the hood after being away form Jersey for a while, and then catching up on work. I know holy old threads batman, blah blah lol, but seriously, the update. I applied my final coat of bondo and hopefully this will finish all the minor problems encountered a few months ago. I am letting it sit overnight and then sanding till I can see my face in it lol, actually I have the glaze to go on afterwards so its smooth as glass, then im going to start ot fill in the main vent, and moldign the initiallayer with, and yes this works, playing cards. Yes this does work, it actually prevents bondo from stickig on it, I used playing cards to make the wheel wells on my pine wood derby car a few years ago, it was a 1998 Le Mans Viper GTS-R # 51 that placed 2nd in the GTS class. Won me best looking and was cruising on a few pine wood derby iternet sites for a while there, took me 5 months to make it, and came out perfect. now with fiberglass tho I have to use a psecial red tape, but the playing cards, being thin, and easy to bend will help me form the shape. then after that I jsut fili nthe fiber glass wiht bondo, and smoothen it till tis to my liking, then test fit to make sure nothing hits, and them its cloning time. Now once the first hood is made, Im goign to check it out, make sure its acceptable, fix any problems and then makea mold off that, then make ANOTHER hood, and use that one for add ons like NACA ducts and such and make a mold of that. Its gonna take alot of fiberglass and time, but to me I enjoy this so much , Iwish I could just make a living out of it. now I am undecided if I want to fill in the two fake vents so people, let me hear your opinions, let them stay or let them go!! how do I makea poll on here?

Depending on how the scoop turns out int he front I would then make a decision to cover the fake vents. I figure there would have to be a lot of leveling involved in clearing them out.

well I have leftovers of special shaping foam from work ( $600.00 for a 12"X4X8 piece of it!!!) that I was gonna use for them, but yeah idk if i want to just pull off a mold with them stillin, and then modify the hood without them and then pull that one, I just want to get it done and start a small prduction of them, i dont want to make many of them cause I dont want every tom dick and harry to have one, so and a few changes will be made like if someone wants NACA air ducts or louvers, Ill try to accomidate those requests, so in a sense almost every one of these hoods will be a one off!! but we'll see how the first one comes out. more then likely tho ill get rid of them cause after that photoshop of the hood you made without the inserts looked sick, I wantedt o go in that direction, but everytime I get close to being done I add somethign to the list lol.
